I admit I didn't think of classical music. So as I said, you are welcome to nominate older items if track really captured your heart in 2024.My situation is: most of what I'm listening to is classical music and most of those recordings are older. Very few would have been released in 2024. So, what would be of interest would be new to me, but not necessarily new. The recording I posted was issued in 2003, but I first heard the music this month.
I gave you a like because this music is fantastic, the pianist is amazing and considering we are in competition with each other for likes that says a lot. >@^_*@<
I'm beginning to wonder if there will ever be enough of a consensus to name a winner ?I admit I didn't think of classical music. So as I said, you are welcome to nominate older items if track really captured your heart in 2024.
The spread of member interest in music is far, far wider than I imagined! I suspect the winner won't have many more likes but we will see.I'm beginning to wonder if there will ever be enough of a consensus to name a winner ?
Being that we are in competition with each other receiving a like or two is a big deal.The spread of member interest in music is far, far wider than I imagined! I suspect the winner won't have many more likes but we will see.
It's strange - I first was aware of "High Fidelity" back around 1970, thanks in large part to the magazine of the same name. The local library carried it and Stereo Review. I wasn't aware of Stereophile and Absolute Sound until about ten years later. "High Fidelity" gave the impression that the pursuit of good sound had a lot more to do with classical (and other acoustic) musics than pop, they seemed to have a particular distain for rock at the time. And, while I listened to lots of pop/rock music in the 70s and 80s (thanks to working in record stores), come the 90s my focus was almost exclusively on acoustic music. So, I got the impression that classical music was the audiophile stuff, the popular forms weren't. Of course, a lot more technical work goes into making a good pop/rock record than a good classical record - one can make a first-class classical recording with comparatively simple gear.I admit I didn't think of classical music.

Yep, the beginnings of HiFi 1940-60s was mainly built by the classical music fans, they had both the serious interest and the income level to pursue it.It's strange - I first was aware of "High Fidelity" back around 1970, thanks in large part to the magazine of the same name.
